Gotta Love Capricorns

Hello to all! I was incredibly
impressed with the reviews on duckhuntitis, perhaps a blog on
buckhuntitis is in store? Let me know if you would like to see it!?
In a small nod to my one year anniversary of having lived here in
Illinois (Yankee state) I thought I'd tip my hat to Capricorns, being
that I am one myself, and write a funny but wildly true post about
Capricorns including our personality traits, habits, whats important
to us and what you should know about trying to date one!? All in good
fun!

Capricorn: December 22 to January 20

Capricorns are very traditional people,
old school, I think, is a better description. They keep closely to
family, culture and societal traditions. (For instance, my family
down south is very religious as expected, having moved from the bible
belt to the corn belt was a real shock. While I don't attend worship
every Sunday like I ought too, I still pray and read the bible every
day, its just the Capricorn way. Also, my culture is southern, very
southern, and its tradition to have opening day hunting season
rituals, “thou shall not skip thy rituals”; rubbing last year's
duck feathers will bring good luck in this year's duck blind.) As far
as societal traditions, this is where the old school part comes into
play, while for the most part they adapt with society and learn how
to use technology and live with their partners before marriage, they
will always revert back to traditional ways when they are seeking
peace and quiet. Capricorns can live without their phones or TV and
are keen on courtship and traditional marriage. It all goes hand in
hand of being a Capricorn.

Capricorns are very ambitious, when
looking for a partner, money does not speak to them; however, one's
personal drive does. They seek real accomplishment, having a $10,000
baseball card collection is not an accomplishment in the eyes of a
Capricorn. Career success is super important to them and they seek
similar success in their partners.

Avoid bringing a Capricorn into the
center of attention around new people, they are very shy creatures by
nature and will not disarm and open up until they feel comfortable
around someone. Capricorns usually seek the company of humble,
down-to-earth people, rather than snoody stuck-up people. Although
Capricorns have been known to display an arrogant side.

Capricorns are very serious, while they
can goof off and be silly in their private circle of friends, they
are otherwise serious with tendencies to be quiet. Sometimes their
quiet bouts are very alarming to their family and friends because
they can go from being ridiculously silly to dead serious, usually
people think they are sick or angry when this happens. This usually
gives people the “hot and cold” sensation from them. Rest assured
it is not meant towards you or anyone else, its just how they are.

Capricorns value intelligence in an
individual, they despise people that play dumb. They enjoy
intelligent conversation and a good, friendly debate on important
topics in the world.

Capricorns also have the highest
standards in the Zodiac, for themselves and for others, they are
easily disappointed when they fall short of their standards and they
are severely disappointed when others don't live up to their own
standards, in other words they despise hypocrisy.

While Capricorns are loving creatures
by nature and do not tend to harbor resentment, they can and do hold
grudges, ones that likely last a life time. It takes a lot to truly
anger a Capricorn to the point of holding a grudge, but once one has
fell onto one's bad side, it is not likely that person will receive
forgiveness within their lifetime.

Capricorns are capable of truly loving
their life partner. For those that are the significant other of a
Capricorn you should know that they will protect you fiercely and
courageously and will always remain 100 percent loyal and committed
to you.

A secret about Capricorns, is they
aren't as confident as they seem, not that they intentionally put off
an air, but their bravery of speaking their mind makes them seem
overly confident. Capricorns enjoy a partnership with someone who can
always reassure and support them, keep their secrets and face the
world by their side.

Capricorns are not very materialistic,
but hold dear to them the things they do possess, leading them to be
a bit stingy, but otherwise they give their resources freely.

Capricorns are fully aware how weird
and off-key they come off to others. Capricorns often have weird
quirks and funny habits, but often they are religion for them. (In
fact my mother recently told me it seems my motto catch phrase is
“Religiously” i.e. “I duck hunt religiously.”)

One must tread carefully around
Capricorns because they know how power works and they are very
knowledgeable in their capacity to use it. While they strive to be
leaders, a few take it too far and become dictators and lets face it,
nobody likes a dict....

When a Capricorn is attracted you, you
will know, because you will receive advice and repeated offers of
support from them – a true sign of affection from a Capricorn.
Capricorns will also tell you about all of their very unique talents,
as a way of impressing you, while they Peacock about what they can
do, they never lie about their talents, because when there isn't
anyone around to impress, they take them seriously, religiously if
you will.

Capricorns are big kissers but often
times, someone they are incredibly fond of will receive a head
nestle. They prefer to show their affection physically in a way that
can't be so intimately shared with everyone else. If a Capricorn
pushes their face into your neck, chances are, they are incredibly
fond of you and adore you like no other. And too, Capricorns are very
genuine, generous and sincere, so if they tell you “I love you”
you should know that these words hold much importance to them.

Also, Capricorns can be selfish towards
their mates, or to better put it selfish with their mates, Capricorns
have a lot of love to give but do not wish to give it to many people,
hence why their inner circle that receives such love is very, very
small. While they don't mind sharing their mates with other people,
they never like to feel neglected. A Capricorn's partner should
always be sure to return the affection they receive from them to make
sure they do not feel neglected.

Capricorns keep their promises. When
they make a promise, they will go to the ends of the Earth to fulfill
it. If a Capricorn disavows a promise, then there is always a
seriously good reason why. But remember also, Capricorns despise
others that cannot keep their promises towards them.

A Capricorn's biggest weakness is
over-thinking, they succumb to it often, which can tire them out
mentally and emotionally. This is why Capricorns always seek a
partner that is simple and straightforward as it helps to balance out
such a tense habit.

Capricorns are the biggest bluffers in
the Zodiac, they can hold a straight face for hours, which is usually
used as a tactic of intimidation. Often times though their silence or
bluffing is used as a weapon when they are hurt.

Capricorns at their best are very
relaxed and always open to listen to people when they are needed.
They take things as they come but plan smart for the future.
Capricorns in all their endeavors of being loyal creatures, strive to
foster optimism in their lives.

So there you have it a small round up
of what you should know about that crazy Capricorn in your life! Let
me know what you would like to read next! Keep it real and keep it
Straight Southern!
